Question

$$30y-25=15y+5$$

Solve for y

$y=2$

Steps for Solving Linear Equation

Subtract $15y$ from both sides.

$$30y-25-15y=5$$

Combine $30y$ and $-15y$ to get $15y$.

$$15y-25=5$$

Add $25$ to both sides.

$$15y=5+25$$

Add $5$ and $25$ to get $30$.

$$15y=30$$

Divide both sides by $15$.

$$y=\frac{30}{15}$$

Divide $30$ by $15$ to get $2$.

$$y=2$$
